The team was attentive, and genuinely hospitable. A truly delightful experience from start to finish.“

“Wonderful, friendly owners! Coffee is delicious and the greek baked goods/desserts are fantastic! Bonus... you can hone your greek language skills 🩵“

“Goldrush has become my favorite neighborhood spot! For coffee, an amazing cookie / pastry or a friendly face. The staff is amazing, the location is warm and welcoming. The perfect spot to pop in with a friend or hang solo to get a little work done. 10/10 recommend!“

“Great value and quality! Highly recommend!“

“This place took me by surprise! They don’t have too many specialty coffees however their coffee was amazing! It’s inside of an old bank which was insanely cool! I so happened to get a Lavender Vanilla latte and it was so good! It wasn’t overly sweet which I loved! Will definitely be coming back!“

“Best coffee & danishes in NJ, hands down.“

“Friendly staff, great coffee! I had a Nutella iced latte, and it was delicious. On the weekends, they do a little pop-up market outdoors, which is extra fun!“

“Took the dog to the animal hospital nearby and stopped in for a cappuccino. I was impressed with the operation, and the different type of coffees and preparations. Definitely a great place for coffee.“

“Wow, needed a coffee before summoning the energy to gut it out for some striper in the surf on a snotty day - and this place was so far beyond expectations given most coffee shops aren’t even open this time of year.

The place is perfect. The latte was amazing and the avocado toast, recommended by the very awesome Jeannette who I assume is the owner, was better and more interesting than most anything I get back in Southern California (no, that’s no hyperbole). Holiday vibes are on point too! Thanks for having me!“

“This is such an amazing place! Delicious coffees, an awesome atmosphere, and simply some of the best plants you can get in the area; it’s a completely wonderful experience every time I visit! The owner, Nubia, is beyond kind, knowledgeable, and always so welcoming! This female owned and operated small business should be celebrated for how amazing it truly is! Skip the big coffee chains and big box shops and support this incredible, local businesses, instead!“

“So, we’re from boston and are visiting my son. Not too much to choose from around here in terms of restaurants. But suddenly I see a sign Minas Grill and went in just because of the word grill. It’s Brazilian! My heart is singing! Great coffee, the food is like home cooked. Loved the cheese bread and you can shop here too! Lovely warm people and so helpful! So we’ll be back while we’re here.“

“Amazing food, friendly staff, delicious coffee🖤“

“Dutch Coffee!!! Wonderful staff and a cozy environment.“

“The food was amazing. I continue to come back for lunch for a quick, delicious, and affordable meal. The staff is extremely friendly, and have never messed up any of my orders. Definitely recommend checking them out and taking advantage of the $10 bowls. Gives chipotle next door a run for their money.“

“Just a great, delicious cup of coffee .. and Mark has his shop running like clockwork“

“Yummy My breakfast eggs and greens with avocado was amazing !“

“Forget the rest, AP is the best.
Don’t be fooled by new comer coffee shops in Asbury Park. If you want good fresh roasted coffee, look no further. Take the walk to 2nd Ave. The folks working are always kind and there is comfy seating if you want I stay. The iced coffee is god tier, probably the best I’ve ever had. Rich and flavorful but no bitterness. I’ve been coming here for years and have started bringing the beans home for when I’m not in town. I’ve ordered also from their website and deliver was fast and easy. Now when I have visitors at my home they remark at how good my coffee is, the best they say. I say yes, yes it is.“

“Great pour overs, well trained staff“

“Everything is always so delicious and even though it’s a little far from me I try to make a trip at least once a week since it’s my favorite spot!“

“Polite, friendly service. Clean, inviting environment. Fun music ( not too loud for 8 am). Good, quick food. Hot coffee (and HOT SYRUP!). No disdain that I was paying with a gift card for 2 free meals, and taking 1 togo- super accommodating and bonus points bc that's not a great table to get on a Sunday morning. kudos Joshua 😊“

“We were invited to the friends and family breakfast the day before opening. We were all absolutely floored by this place and have already made a new tradition to come every sunday! The wait staff and INCREDIBLE, they are so sweet and so speedy! They were so considerate, turned the fire place off for us, and talked with our kids. The restaurant is clean, calm, almost beachy feeling. The most important...the food was absolutely amazing AND at an incredible price. The portions are large and VERY affordable, while looking and tasting like high end breakfast. This place makes you feel rich, and will thankfully not give your bank account the bill.“

“This is the cutest location weve been to yet. Really friendly staff and awesome vibes coming from this place. there's nowhere to really chill but you shouldn't be hanging there for too long anyway because there's too much life to live outside“

“Great coffee and croissant. I will be back.“

“The Grand Victorian (Allison) recommended this little cafe and it was awesome. Kelly was a great waitress who provided a wealth of information as to where to go. The food was delicious and service was fast. Highly recommend.“

“Today was my first time and the staff was very friendly and informative,I’ll be back definitely“

“Delicious entrees. Tell a friend. My favorite dining spot!“

“My husband and I had breakfast here yesterday. It was our first time at Rise n Shine and we loved it!!! Great food and service. Our new favorite restaurant.“

“Adorable location and delicious selections of fresh coffee. Such a pleasure ☕️☕️“

“The food !! Everything is fresh & yums!! They also made corn pancakes ( don’t judge til you’ve had them 😊) not on the menu for myself & my bff!!“

“Been going here since it opened, as a great place to sit in the sun outdoors, or inside at the various seating options. Fine coffee, great service from long time friendly staff members here, and a top place for casual meetings on the West Side of Red Bank. Limited but tasty food options.“

“When you want the best ���“

“The Best. Sumatra , pumpkin Spice Oh love.“

“This coffee shop is a hidden gem and worth the visit. I was blown away by how amazing the coconut and banana foster lattes were, and our barista Jessica was super friendly and made our drinks perfectly! Highly recommend checking Coffee Surf Co. out!“

“This was a soul quenching phenomena. Mike told me he got in around noon. A gem of a barista, people like him are an enormous part of the reason this culture and vibe are so revered.

Specialty coffee is anything if
not stylish, and like all things sophisticated, worth traveling for and often, waiting for. I will say though, if you go late it may be quiet enough to see the shop in a special and nuanced glow.

And yes, there is something about a remarkable cafe that just epitomizes it…. The connection to where the flavor comes from. Bean to mug, farm to table, and although the beans drift through the air and over oceans, if the culture of storytelling hits just right, you can get more than a cup of coffee at the right place.“

“THE BREAKFAST AND LUNCH (FOOD OVERALL) IS AMAZING!!! WOW, THE BEST I'VE HAD IN CENTRAL JERSEY. EVERYTHING IS COOKED TO PERFECTION. THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME HAVING THEIR BREAKFAST AND LUNCH AND THIS PLACE HAS WON ME OVER. IM VERY PICKY WHEN IT COMES TO A GOOD BREAKFAST, THIS PLACE HAS FULFILLED MY NEEDS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND AND WILL REVISIT TIME-TO-TIME. SO GLAD I FINALLY FOUND A PLACE I LIKE. 🙌“

“Big vibes for a little place. It was a great way to start my morning this morning, from the good mornings and positive and uplifting energy from the employees (from both Pat’s and Coffee Surf) to their breakfast sandwich and the BEST cup of Chai tea I have had in a while. I highly recommend both places.“

“As frequent visitors to Asbury Park, we’ve tried most of the coffee spots in the area, and Offshore Coffee is definitely our #1. The staff is always friendly, and the coffee is absolutely delicious. It’s the perfect stop if you’re strolling along the Asbury Park Boardwalk—grab a seat, enjoy your brew, and take in the ocean view. Highly recommended—you won’t be disappointed! The only suggestion I have is to add some gluten free snack options.“

“I came from Massachusetts with my family to visit, and it did not disappoint! All. The merchandise is beyond adorable! The tabby cake was good but a little Sweeter than expected, the coffee selection was good too ,but I'm writing this review for Nancy ! She was incredible, so personable , so easy to talk too and patient, this girly loves her job and it shows in her amazing customer service skills
She made the experience worth the 6 hour drive I would come back just for her !“

“Came here for a morning cup of joe. Good medium roast iced coffee for me and the Turkish coffee for my friend. We enjoyed our coffees, the Turkish coffee has a great cardamom aroma. Friendly and quick service. There's no seating so take your coffee and walk around town.“

“I recently visited Seawatch Coffee and Market, and I can’t stop raving about the experience! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere enveloped me in warmth and charm. The cozy, nautical-inspired decor, with its soft lighting and comfortable seating, creates a welcoming vibe that feels like a home away from home. The service is nothing short of exceptional. The staff greeted me with genuine smiles and made me feel like a valued guest from the start. They were attentive without being overbearing, quick to offer recommendations, and clearly passionate about what they do. The owner deserves special praise for setting the tone of this gem. Their warmth and dedication shine through in every detail, from the carefully curated menu to the inviting atmosphere. You can tell they pour their heart into what they do. This is a place where quality and care come together beautifully—I can’t wait to return!“

“To the BASHERS that have posted such a bad & vicious reviews .
PLEASE STOP . The food is excellent. The service is superior and PERSONAL and the atmosphere is very nice.
We Are coming to this coffee place every Friday for the past two years , and ALWAYS enjoy as this is the first time .
BRAVO ….
Did I mention that we are owners of a restaurant as well 💕“

“Absolutely love what Makana’s has brought to Asbury Park! From the moment you step in, you’re greeted with a burst of fresh, inviting aromas and a smile from the friendly staff. I tried their signature Philly Wrap and the Ube latte, both of which were out of this world!“

“Really good food and great staff. Place was clean and accommodating. Yolo French roast was heaven. 🥵“

“Love this place and the folks who run it! Fresh food and great service every time! The French dip Sammy is THE BOMB!💣. The best👍“

“This review is for the Mexican grill within the store.

I just had their Quesabirria tacos and OH MY GOD, they go up against any restaurant’s, EASILY. And for only $14 where everyone else is charging $17-$18 for the same amount? It’s a steal and I can’t wait to try everything else out on the menu!“

“hands down my favorite coffee shop. The two girls behind the counter are so friendly and seem to know every customers order by heart. The coffee is always delicious and the service is always quick; everything served with a smile! i’d give more than five stars to this store and their staff!“

“Great coffee, super friendly staff, and amazing little shop. This has become my go-to gift spot if I need to grab something quality but small. Especially love their candles and jewelry - anyone I’ve ever gifted them to has loved them also!“

“Our server Joe was very nice, helpful and pleasant. We had the bagels and lox, power bowl and oatmeal with blueberries and bananas, absolutely delicious!! Highly recommend especially this time of year, usually a wait in summer but weee sat right away this time. The food was extremely fresh, and everything looked and tasted homemade.“

“How this place doesn’t have 5,000+ 5-Star reviews I don’t know. Offshore has been serving quality roasts, food, service, and atmosphere for a long time in Long Branch. Their Belmar location is no different. With menu that is always great and plenty of seating you can’t beat it. They are always on their game, I can’t recommend enough.“
